Our Skalka cable car meets the strictest technical parameters. On the way up, along the bike park track lining our new ski slope, it provides a spectacular view of the Ještěd transmitter from an unusual perspective. On the way down you can enjoy the view of the town of Liberec, Bedřichov and the Krkonoše Mountains.
